...season, it is taken up with equal vigor in the spring, and in some parts of Ontario is played throughout the entire year, winter and all. The game is confined almost exclusively to Ontario. Here we have fifty or more first-class clubs, the majority of them belonging to either of two Associations, an Eastern and a Western. The deciding of the championship of each of the Associations is the means of creating rivalry which does much towards the advancement of the game...

...committee has no axes to grind, it has not been run in the interest either of Mr. Watson or of Mr. Bancroft. There is no truth whatever in the statement that the committee has on several occasions interfered with the affairs of the boat club, with disastrous results to the success of the crew...

...this whole term! And what's this? 'Board at Harvard Dining Association,' $54,-well, that's rather contradicted by the next, 'Extras,' $25. If I had stuck to the regular feed I couldn't have eaten all those extras, so it seems to me they ought to wipe off either the "board" or the "extra" items.
